Raw Food in NYC - Gena, Dhru, Judita, Pure Food & Wine, and FUN! (video too)

Today was a nice day in New York. The sun came out many times. We spent the early part of the day walking around Central Park which was filled with runners, walkers, families, musicians, artists, and all kinds of neat stuff. 

Then, we met Gena for fresh Plant Blood at Cafe Blossom. I was pretty hungry so I had three juices! Ha! I was buzzing on greens for the rest of the day and it felt great. Gena is a great gal and we hit it off. It was a gab fest that I was not ready to have end. Fortunately, we're meeting up for dinner (and hopefully more juice dates) before I leave. This is a picture of us each enjoying a Plant Blood called Pink Lady. It was fabulous!!!

After our juice date with Gena, my husband and I went back to the room to freshen up for our get together with Dhru and Judita. We arrived at Pure Food and Wine early, so I opted for my 4th Plant Blood of the day around the corner at One Lucky Duck - Pure Juice & Takeaway. 

Then, we met Dhru. It was great to finally meet face to face, and it was everything I expected... fun & cool. We really enjoyed talking with him and I look forward to spending more time with him before my trip ends. 

When drinks ended, my husband and I elected to stick around and have dinner at Pure Food and Wine. As anticipated, dinner was very good. My husband ordered the lasagna (very popular) and I ordered a falafel dish. I admit though that my favorite part about PF&W and One Lucky Duck are the desserts. Heavenly. Flavorful. Awesome. Perfection. I want to make a meal out of them... and this isn't out of the question. 

As we know... raw desserts can often be eaten even as breakfast! The next time I go there, I'm either ordering two desserts for myself along with a nice cup of herbal tea for my meal. Or, I'm getting a salad and dessert (or two! Ha!).
